A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Too bad LLM "AI" can't pick up the slack which is the whole reason it was still around and so active.

Ironically, according to the article, the underpaid workers had actually started using it. Seems like Amazon got a taste of the future they advertised, and decided they didn't want it themselves.

Yeah, gotta keep your employees poor so they can't afford to leave no matter how badly they're treated.
